Error when querying reference_system

[Sally S 0]

Hi, I tried to set up Snort by following the instruction on

However when I try to verify the Barnyard2 configuration by running d:\winids\activators\by2-test , I saw the following error in postgres log file:

2016-06-24 16:21:57 EDT LOG:  statement: SELECT `ref_system_id`, ref_system_name FROM reference_system;

It looks like it's expecting a column called " `ref_system_id` " in the table reference_system, while the column is just "ref_system_id" based on the script in D:\winids\barnyard2\schemas\create_postgres. Can you please advise what could have gone wrong here?

 

Thanks,

Sally

I completed a fresh install using Server 2008 R2 and when I preform the test for Barnyard2, I get the below:

Attached is build 336 and it works. Your existing config file will work. I have a note in the Barnyard2 users group about this problem.
